My summer reading 2018

This month I decided to freshen up on my reader's advisory for the age group that I actually work with and read some upper elementary reads that I've had on my list for a very long time. If you have been keeping up with my blog, you would know that I'm currently reading Lauren Myracle's Winnie Years, "Ten," "Eleven", "Twelve," etc... and they have been a blast to read.

Hopefully, I can also tackle some of these summer themed love stories... especially the one by Sarah Dessen...

and lastly, similar to Gilda Joyce Psychic Investigator... I'm dying to read Clara Voyant by Delaney, which just arrived at our library a few weeks ago. Happy Reading! Don't forget to drop a comment and tell me what you're reading this summer. 

Summer Reads- My old time favs

 Read up this summer with some of my old favorites!
Mother Daughter Bookclub is a fun read for girls. I would recommended it for grades 5 - 7th grade. Four girls are asked to join a book club with the mothers... boring right? Wrong! With multiple personalities, programs, school challenges, and family dynamics this is one you won't want to miss.







Nantucket Blue is definitely a teen book for grades 9-12. Its fun! Its summer! Its teen romance and Nantucket all tucked into one!

YOLO by Myracle follows the girls from TTYL as they embark onto college! This one involves some serious young adult topics so grades 9-12 are best for this one.

Awww Gidge! Who doesn't love the original Gidget television series starring Sally Fields. This is a great beach read and if you loved the episodes, it is many of them all rolled into one. Follow Gidget, her dad and moon doggie as she enjoys her summers at the beach. Great for teens and adults who loved the TV series. It may be hard to find, but you can order it from your local library.

Ten by Lauren Myracle

Lauren Myracle has been one of my favorite authors for a very long time. I delved into this "tween" or upper elementary book with great enthusiasm, and was not disappointed. Winnie, the main character is a spunky gal who reminds me of a softer Ramona Quimby from the Beverly Cleary series. She takes us on her school adventures, bickers with her loving sister, and goes through what most girls go through in grade 5. I'm looking into reading the next book in this series very soon. Although the titles have been out for quite some time, its a good read for any child who loves realistic fiction. Winnie is also not too much of a "girly girl," so children with different interests may enjoy it as well.
Recommended grades 4-6th.
